then youre not legally bound to obey the dictates of the contracts becuz its not a valid agreement

2018-07-06 23:05:56 UTC  

you can go off and homestead somewhere off the grid if you so please lol

2018-07-06 23:06:27 UTC  

yes but what if i still live within the confines of what the government holds jurisdiction over. lets say i was born there and dont want to move

2018-07-06 23:06:50 UTC  

basically... in this system... you will have an explicit contract or "certificate of citizenship" in the US

2018-07-06 23:07:19 UTC  

bcuz citizenship now basically is just a social contract, a make-believe contract (not a valid contract)

2018-07-06 23:07:50 UTC  

all im saying is.... there are contracting laws and conventions already in place that would handle all this stuff

2018-07-06 23:08:23 UTC  

read this article and think about the so called "social contract"

2018-07-06 23:09:33 UTC  

the thing is .... currently "the government" is a monopoly on the initation of force AKA the state

2018-07-06 23:10:33 UTC  

but there would be no central authority in a nation of decentralized legal systems.... so you would have many more choices as a consumer

2018-07-06 23:11:03 UTC  

cuz im talking about a *polycentric* government rather than a monopolistic govt

2018-07-06 23:11:27 UTC  

with true checks and balances

2018-07-06 23:13:55 UTC  

where the votes of others arent forced upon you arbitrarily by mob rule .... and where you cannot force your will (democratically) onto others either

2018-07-06 23:15:37 UTC  

just think about it though.... in order for a contract to be legally valid here and now as it currently stands, EVERY single point/requirement of the contract needs to be satisfied, otherwise its a null-and-void, invalid contract .... illegitimate

2018-07-06 23:15:55 UTC  

anyways.... im getting burnt out.... feel free to PM me if you want to talk more tho

2018-07-06 23:16:28 UTC  

but we both agreed that there needs to be some form of macro governance because some problems are macro scale. and enforcing the laws of that macro govt requires some form of centralized authority (i.e., preventing several disparate private legal systems across the land from polluting shared natural resources). if you are a polluting tribe, you will have votes from non-polluting tribes forced upon you "arbitrarily by mob rule". i dont see how the macro governance in a private system would be more benevolent than the macro governance today.

2018-07-06 23:16:39 UTC  

ya same need to get some work done

2018-07-06 23:16:54 UTC  

nice chat tho 👍

2018-07-06 23:17:11 UTC  

good talking with you so far about this tho, is still enjoyable for a friendly debate 😇

2018-07-06 23:17:29 UTC  

thanks, you too, anytime

2018-07-06 23:17:31 UTC  

2018-07-06 23:17:37 UTC  

😉

2018-07-06 23:20:26 UTC  

i hear your arguments though..... theyre valid concerns, but i still disagree with some of yoru premise that "macro govt requires some form of centralized authority" bcuz that is the beauty of emerging systems and spontaneous order

2018-07-06 23:22:51 UTC  

if you just take a look at computer technology.... just look at USB standards..... no centralized macro state authority dictating these standards... they have all arisen in common interest by tech companies and consumers ... that is an example of how emergent systems work... they EMERGE from the primordial waters of chaos and evolve into more structured order organically

2018-07-06 23:25:37 UTC  

these systems must *emerge* from the bottom up through *macro* voluntary human interactions.... not be imposed from the top down autocratically by self-serving politicians is what im saying

2018-07-06 23:28:07 UTC  

thats the invisible hand at work, and how it sorts everything out in the end..... nobody knew what would be on the other side of abolishing slavery ... and there were tons of doomsayers ("who will pick the cotton? somebody needs to pick the cotton! we'll all starve to death"), but just look at how the market solved all the problems with farming technology, etc. so it was a win-win for everybody to abolish the immoral practice of slavery

2018-07-06 23:28:35 UTC  

anyways..... lol 🤓

2018-07-06 23:29:47 UTC  

guess should have been moved to the debate thread!

2018-07-06 23:42:05 UTC  

let's say this is something I should know

2018-07-06 23:42:17 UTC  

in discord is there a way to jump to alerts

2018-07-06 23:42:43 UTC  

dont worry about them, it was a spammer

2018-07-06 23:42:49 UTC  

ahh

2018-07-06 23:45:53 UTC  

@LotheronPrime for future reference, look for the @ symbol. On mobile (andriod at least) it's under the upper left menu for changing servers, down by your name. Browser is usually in the upper right somewhere I think. That will show you recent mentions so you can jump to them quickly

2018-07-06 23:51:08 UTC  

that's what I was looking for thanks

2018-07-06 23:51:13 UTC  

knew there had to be a way

2018-07-06 23:51:13 UTC  

that's what I was looking for thanks

2018-07-06 23:52:05 UTC
